What is a side hustle?

The term “side hustle” has been gaining popularity for a while now and refers to a project you pursue in addition to your 9-to-5 job. A side hustle may or may not bring in income. Side hustlers are mainly looking to explore an interest, hone their skills, and share their work while growing an audience.

A side hustle can be anything.

Seriously!

Our users are really inspiring. They have all kinds of successful side hustles. We’ve seen a lawyer who doubles as a musician, a life coach who is also a talented massage therapist, and even someone who is a business consultant by day, lifestyle blogger by night.

An extension of your job

For some, a side gig is an extension of their job. They speak at conferences, write a blog, or host a podcast as a way to share the knowledge they’ve gained in their field.

Make some extra cash

A side hustle may be a way to bring in additional income from something you already enjoy doing. If you’re crafty, it’s easier than ever to launch an online shop of your creations.

Push your boundaries

A side hustle is the perfect way to push the boundaries in terms of what you can do. Have you and a friend been kicking around an app or business idea? That could be a side gig in the making! Your side hustle is the perfect reason to explore something totally new and exciting.

Side hustlers we admire

Wait—is having a side hustle the same thing as freelancing?

We’re going to be honest here: freelancers get a lot of attention. There are a lot of tools and solutions out there to help them succeed. We think side hustlers need a little love, too!

A side hustler is someone who has at least two projects that they are pursuing. One of them being a traditional 9-to-5 job and the other is their “hustle,” which they do in their off hours.

A freelancer typically works for themselves. They are promoting and selling their skillset as their primary source of income. Sometimes people actually freelance as their side hustle. There’s a lot of overlap.
